Head of iAds leaving Apple to join Highland Capital
Technology blog *All Things D" reports that Andy Miller, VP of Apple's iAd mobile advertising division, is leaving to join venture capital firm, Highland Capital.
Miller came to Apple as part of the Quattro Wireless acquisition, which Apple purchased after losing out on AdMob to Google. He reported directly to Steve Jobs. iAd, however, has faced a number of issues and hasn't exactly set the mobile ad world on fire.
No word yet on who will replace him.
Editor-in-Chief of iMore, Executive Producer at Mobile Nations, co-host of Iterate and ZEN and TECH, cook, grappler, photon wrangler.

Well... they are still ads, after all.
I just got an iPhone4 for $ 23. 53 and my girlfriend loves her Dell laptop that we got for $ 33.49 there arriving tomorrow by UPS I will never pay such expensive retail prices in stores again. Especially when I also sold a 42 inch LED TV to my boss for $ 645 which only cost me $ 59.63 to buy.We are getting all this stuff from, GrabPennу.com
No wonder iAds haven't really been successful yet. In Switzerland (and probably all of Europe?), every app with an iAd included still only shows "iAd Test Advertisement" in the ad banner! That way, no developer will make any money in the regions that are not yet enabled for iAds (and neither will Apple). This makes the incentive to include iAds over AdMob very small.
